We have Flavo machines very similar but the line is always to long and I am too busy to wait for that stuff. My office is like 400 to 500 people. There are many coffee stations.

That's why I suggested a personal Keurig for your desk, if you are allowed to have that sort of thing of course.

Oh I gottcha I thought you meant for the whole office.

I don't know... Ever have a canker sore? Hurts like hell right but some reason you can't stop poking at it. That is what the coffee situation is like for me; it grinds my gears but a remote part of me finds pleasure in the disappointment of it not being there. I guess it helps me justify this place sucks at times.

It is odd I really can't explain it but at times people get pleasure from things that pain them.

Like getting pleasure from being a Skins fan.

Finally something we can agree on.

Why do we sit there on a Sunday, all excited, only to be miserable by the end of the Third or worse (as it seems with Dallas) on the last score of the game?

Just for rare moments like this:
